Our manufacturing plant is especially well equipped to make not only the ordinary sizes, but satisfactorily to fit odd-sized windows, as well. Materials of High Quality We use John King’s imported Scotch Holland cloth. American Non-Fade Scotch Holland and American hand-tinted cambric cloth, because they are the most durable and bekst looking. Colors for Spring and Summer Dark greens are popular, as they keep out the strong sunlight and give a soft, cool effect. White, light tans and grays may also be used. Shades Durably Constructed All have the herringbofie stitched hem, which pre- vents raveling; the pull cord is run through an eyelet in the slat and equipped with silk crochet pull ring, thus preventing the slat from slipping and the shade from being torn. Hartshorn rollers used exclusively; brackets put up with screws so as not to split the woodwork or pull out.
